Chapter 410: Capture the King
In the northern fortress of the Gesen Kingdom, this place has been temporarily stabilized, all the wounded soldiers have begun to deal with the injuries on their bodies, some light saint divisions are also constantly exerting their light holy power in the rear to heal the wounded generals of some wounded generals, on the city wall, a team of wounded soldiers wrapped in bandages are patrolling on it with vigor, and now the walls of the fortress are hung with the heads of nine strong enemies, which greatly boosts morale.
On both sides of the city wall, a large number of craftsmen were crowded to repair the city wall, and countless stones of one meter square were pulled up from behind, and the broken city wall was simply connected.
Outside the fortress, thousands of soldiers from the Kingdom of Gesen dug several large pits in the distance and buried the bodies of the soldiers killed in battle. Now that the army of the Pingyang Kingdom has withdrawn to thirty miles and has not moved for the time being, it is obvious that the death of several Sky Saint Masters has caused a very big impact on their hearts.
In the city tower, there were more than 30 general-level figures wearing armor gathered together, all of them with very serious expressions.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this general has just received a flying pigeon transmission from the three fortresses in the south, east and west, and now the enemy army has broken through the three border fortresses, and the army is marching in the direction of the imperial city, our soldiers are suffering heavy casualties, and another Sky Saint Master died in the hands of the enemy's strong, and the rest of the Sky Saint Masters are also seriously injured, and the situation is very critical. An old man looked around at everyone and said heavily.
Hearing this, the faces of everyone sitting there became extremely solemn, the fortresses in the southeast and west have been breached, if they are not stopped, once the army breaks through the imperial city, then their Gesen Kingdom will be completely finished.
"Now it seems that even if the national teachers of the Qin Emperor Kingdom rush to support, it will be useless, the gap in the number of strong men on both sides is too big, with the strength of only five of them, it is difficult to save the overall situation. One of the generals sighed.
"I hope that the national teachers of the Qin Emperor Kingdom can use the power of the Qin Emperor State to deter the enemy's army, I believe that they dare not offend the Qin Emperor State, otherwise, the Qin Emperor Kingdom only needs a million elite soldiers to level the four kingdoms. ”
"I don't think things should be so simple, as we all know, the Qin Emperor Kingdom is far away from us, and our Gesen Kingdom and the Qin Emperor Kingdom did not have any intersection before, I think most of the strong people on the enemy side will not believe in the identity of the five national teachers of the Qin Huang Kingdom, and will only regard them as the reinforcements that our Gesen Kingdom has found. ”
"It makes a lot of sense, I think things will most likely be like this, since the national prestige of the Qin Imperial Kingdom can't deter them, then what should we do now, once the imperial city is breached, then what's the point of us staying here, in the end, it's not just obedient surrender. ”
The generals present opened their mouths and discussed fiercely, and everyone explained the possible situation in every word, and the situation was very critical.
"For now, our northern fortress can only send a group of troops to assist the southeast, northwest, and northwest fortresses, and I don't know what you think. An old general voiced his opinion.
Hearing this, everyone frowned, and after a short silence, a general spoke: "But the total number of troops in our northern fortress is less than three million, almost all of them are tired and wounded, and they are also composed of countless mercenaries temporarily, lacking discipline, I don't think even if we send this group of troops to the front, we can't save the situation." ”
"That's the only way we can do it at the moment, and I agree with that proposal. ”
"Yes, we have to do this, now that the Northern Fortress is now stable, the Sky Saint Master of the Pingyang Kingdom has fallen eight, and only the last two people left behind in the palace are left, I think most of them will not act rashly, and they can just transfer a part of the army to assist the other three fortresses, although they can't resist the enemy army, but they can delay for a while. ”
......
After some fierce discussions, the generals finally made up their minds, and some of the strong generals present who were not injured were led by a group of two million soldiers who still retained the strongest combat power to rush to the other three border fortresses in three ways, and the Bright Saint Division who remained in the northern fortress was also transferred to a large part, leaving less than one-third of the number in the northern fortress.
Not long after, the two Sky Saint Masters of the Northern Fortress also got the news, Chang Wuji and Kafeir didn't care about the injuries on their bodies that had not fully healed, and immediately rushed to the Eastern Fortress closest to here, accompanied by everyone from Changyang Mansion.
With the departure of the two million army, the northern fortress has become a little empty, and there are only a few hundred thousand soldiers stationed here, and they are all wounded, sick and disabled.
The evacuation of the two million troops of the Northern Fortress naturally could not hide from the people of the Pingyang Kingdom, and in a big tent in the Pingyang Kingdom, more than a dozen generals of different ages gathered together, and their expressions were full of grief and indignation, because many of the dead Sky Saint Masters were the elders of their families.
"Old General Hong, what are you hesitating about, now there are only some wounded, sick and disabled generals left in the Gesen Kingdom, you should directly order the siege of the city, this time you must break through the northern fortress, and then hang the heads of all the Sky Saint Masters in the Gesen Kingdom on the city wall to avenge my dead grandfather." ”
"No, now our Pingyang Kingdom has suffered quite heavy losses, which indirectly led to the fall of the eight Sky Saint Masters, and its strength is less than half of what it used to be, and now we have to think not about how to capture the Gesen Kingdom, but how to protect ourselves. The old general in armor said in a deep voice, and his face was also very solemn. The fall of the eight Sky Saint Masters of the Pingyang Kingdom has made the top masters of the Pingyang Kingdom almost fall into emptiness, and such a kingdom has no deterrent power at all.
As soon as the old general's words fell, a middle-aged man spoke: "What the old general Hong said is right, now there are only two people left in the palace of our kingdom's Sky Saint Master, once the Hidden Dragon Kingdom, the Wind Blue Kingdom and the Anres Kingdom have broken through the Gesen Kingdom, who can guarantee that they will not join forces to attack our Pingyang Kingdom when the strength of our Pingyang Kingdom is greatly damaged." ”
"Don't you take revenge on my grandfather?" said the general who had killed his grandfather angrily.
"Don't worry, this time the Gesen Kingdom is doomed to perish, and those strong people of the Sky Saint Master class will also be wiped out, and when those people die, won't your grandfather's revenge have to be avenged, is it possible that you still want to use the strength of the Earth Saint Master to kill the Sky Saint Master?" said a general with an indifferent face.
Hearing this, the general who died of his grandfather secretly sighed, and he also knew in his heart that it was impossible for him to kill the enemy with his own hands.
In the end, the army of the Pingyang Kingdom did not attack the northern fortress of the Gesen Kingdom for various reasons, but only stood still thirty miles away from the border of the Gesen Kingdom.
However, not long after, the news of the destruction of the border fortress of the Pingyang Kingdom also reached the front line, and the news focused on an unidentified Sky Saint Master who had broken into the territory of the Pingyang Kingdom and headed straight for the imperial city.
This news frightened the commander-in-chief who had been fighting before, and immediately evacuated the army and returned quickly.
......
In the underground labyrinth, the king of the Pingyang Kingdom and dozens of personal guards all frowned and stayed in a sealed space, staring intently at a jade on the table, this jade is a strange stone on the Tianyuan Continent, known as the twin jade, a total of two pieces, once one of the jade is broken, the other jade will also be broken at the same time.
And this piece of the underground maze is Ziyu, and there is also a piece of mother jade in a very secret place in the palace, only a few important people know that once the crisis of the Pingyang Kingdom is resolved, the people outside will take down the mother jade and crush it, so as to inform the king hiding in the underground labyrinth.
Now, hiding in the depths of the labyrinth, His Majesty the King and dozens of guards hope that this piece of jade will be shattered soon.
At this moment, a strange sound suddenly came into the ears of His Majesty the King and dozens of guards, and one by one they looked at the source of the sound with a look of surprise, only to see that on the ten-meter-thick fine steel wall in front of them, a rich purple and blue light suddenly appeared.
Everyone's faces changed, and their eyes looked at the purple and blue light with some shock and dazedness, although they didn't know what this thing was, but they all had a bad premonition in their hearts. "What is that?" said His Majesty, who could not keep his composure, with a solemn face.
No one returned to the king's majesty, hiding in a completely enclosed space, and they had no way of detecting the situation outside.
At this moment, the purple and blue light that broke through the wall suddenly moved slowly, and a circle with a diameter of two meters was drawn on the iron wall made entirely of stainless steel, and wherever the purple and blue light passed, a gap was broken in the glorious iron wall.
"Oh no, the iron wall is going to be broken. One of the guards exclaimed, with an unconcealable horror on his face, this iron wall made entirely of stainless steel was ten meters thick, which could block the powerhouse of the Sky Saint Master class, and now, it was so easily broken by the enemy, how strong was the enemy?
A group of guards immediately became nervous, covering His Majesty the King in the middle and constantly retreating, staring at the purple and blue light that broke through the wall with solemn faces.
"Impossible, how could this iron wall be broken so easily, could it be that the other party is a holy king?" His Majesty the King also had an unconcealable horror on his face, and said in a trembling tone.
"Boom!"
As soon as His Majesty the King finished speaking, a dull sound suddenly came, and I saw a huge iron pillar two meters wide and ten meters long flying out of the wall, and fell to the ground with a loud bang, and the strong vibration made the entire underground labyrinth tremble a few times. And where the iron pillar flew out, a two-meter-high passage had already appeared, leading to the outside.
At this moment, a slight sound of footsteps sounded in the quiet underground labyrinth, and I saw a young man in a white robe, stained with some blood on his body, slowly walking in from the outside, the young man was not very old, at most he was in his twenties, with short hair less than an inch long, and his resolute face was very handsome.
His Majesty the King and dozens of personal guards all looked at the young man who came out of the passage with a frightened expression, and his steps kept retreating.
"You... You... Who are you?" asked the King, in a trembling voice.
Jian Chen didn't say a word, his eyes looked at the king coldly, the king of the Pingyang Kingdom was an old man with an old dragon clock, wearing a purple gold dragon robe and a purple gold crown, and his long position made him invisibly exude a temperament that belonged to the superior, although it was now a look of horror, but the majesty was still not much reduced.
Jian Chen strode forward and headed for the king. Soon a group of people was cornered.
"Protect His Majesty the King. One of the guards suppressed the fear in his heart and yelled, and then rushed towards Jian Chen.
One person took the lead, and the people behind were not far behind, putting life and death aside one after another, and quickly rushed towards Jian Chen.
